Our 2023 summer sermon series is called, Joseph: Dreaming God’s Dreams. Join us as we learn about Joseph, the Old Testament character whose story is found in Genesis 37-50. It’s an amazing story of how God works in human lives, despite the faults and failures of the human family. Through these sermons, we’ll discover that Joseph experiences highs and lows, great success and trials and tribulations—just like we do—and that in the midst of it all, God was with him and used Joseph to do great good. Invite a friend to worship as we dream God’s dreams together and learn lessons for our own lives from the life of Joseph.

In the mid-1800’s John Wesley established General Rules for the members of the Methodist Society. Wesley’s General rules have been a guide for faithful discipleship for Methodists for more than 280 years and are still relevant in our 21stcentury world. In this series, we’ll look at these Three Simple Rules and consider what they mean for us today.

The overriding theme will be that the Church is God’s idea, that This is God’s Church, and that the Bible, particularly The Acts of the Apostles, has a lot of important things to say about God’s Church. Over the next three weeks, we’ll take a closer look at the first two chapters of Acts and see if we can discover what God has in mind for God’s Church in the 21^st century world.

Our lives are lived in the middle of intersecting circles of relationships: with God, with friends and neighbors, with colleagues and co-workers, with spouses and significant others, and with parents and children. These relationships are a gift from God and the source of many blessings in our lives. But they are also the source of much pain — though conflict, disappointment and hurt feelings. Starting on April 16, we’ll look at what the Bible says about these relationships. We’ll discover how our relationship with God affects our human relationships and what we can do to strengthen the most important relationships in our lives. Focusing on our own lives (what we can control, not on our desire to change others) we’ll learn how to be better children of God, better friends, better workers, better spouses/partners, and better parents or children.

Every year we read the Gospel accounts of Jesus’ birth and enter the story of Mary and Joseph. We are amazed at the miracle of salvation that comes through the birth of Jesus. We worship with the shepherds and join the wise men as they follow the star to meet the newborn King. Throughout the story of Christmas, angels guide us along the way. The Gospel writers tell us what happened in the first Christmas; the angels tell us what it means. Please join us during Advent and Christmas at Trinity as we Listen to the Angels and hear the Good News once again.

“Thanks” and “Giving” go together for many reasons. Put together, they create a word that describes not only a holiday in November, but also a way of living. As children of God and followers of Jesus, we have many reasons to be thankful. We know that God has given us all that we have and made us all that we are, and for that, we give thanks. We affirm that giving and thanking go together in our relationship with God. The Bible teaches us that when we remember what God has done, we are to give thanks. The Bible also teaches us that when we remember what God has done, we give thanks by giving a portion of what we have received back to God. That’s what it means to tithe. That’s what we’re going to discover together as we consider how we might live A Life of Thanks-Giving.

Sermon Series: Labeled

We all wear a variety of labels. Some labels come from other people and the world around us. Some labels we put on ourselves. But we believe that God has different labels for us, labels that truly matter, labels that we can choose to wear. Join us each week as we discover what it means to be Labeled by God.
